A 9-month-old, female, cross-breed dog was presented for management of a left-sided, traumatic, closed, comminuted scapula fracture that had occurred 8 days prior to presentation. Following a computed tomography scan, the fracture was stabilised via open reduction and internal fixation with a 2.7...

Objective: The aim of this study was to document application of locking plates for stabilization of acetabular fractures along with complications and clinical outcomes. We hypothesized that complications and clinical outcomes would be comparable to historical reports using non-locking plate and...

Femoral diaphyseal fractures are usually amenable to reduction with the use of orthodox fixation implants, which in most cases are expensive and cause intense stress to the patient, hence the need for safer, new biomaterials. This study assessed the use of allo-cadaveric bone plates (CBP-A) and...

A retrospective study was conducted to determine the efficacy of internal fixation of appendicular fractures in small and miniature breed dogs using 1.0 mm compression plates. Medical records from a single referral centre in the UK between 2014 and 2021 of small/miniature breed dogs with...

This article aims to evaluate the clinical outcomes and complications of distal radial and ulnar fractures in toy-breed dogs treated with conventional T-shape bone plate fixation. Medical records of toy-breed dogs with distal radius and ulna fractures repaired with open reduction and internal ...

This study was conducted to evaluate the clinical outcome and complications of radius and ulna fractures in toy-breed dogs treated with conventional bone plate fixation. Medical records of toy-breed dogs with radius and ulna fractures repaired with open reduction and internal fixation utilizing...

The study was done with the objective to utilize supracutaneous bone plating as a mean of minimally invasive osteosynthesis for management of radius/ulna and tibia/fibula fractures in dogs. Nine cases of long bone fracture (2 radius/ulna and 7 tibia/fibula fracture) in dogs having body weight 8-20...

Objective: Successful stabilization of comminuted supracondylar humeral fractures is challenging, and biomechanical studies are scarce. This study compares double-plate (DB-PLATE) and linear external fixator with an intramedullary pin tie-in (ESF-IMP) fixation techniques in a cadaveric gap model....

The study was conducted to evaluate clinical effect of working length and rod size for plate rod fixation of diaphyseal femoral fracture repair in dogs. Twenty four dogs with femur fracture were randomly divided into four Groups viz. A, B, C and D having six animals in each group. Three bicortical...

Background: Acetabular fractures comprise 12-30% of canine pelvic fractures and require accurate anatomic reduction and rigid stability to ensure proper healing and minimize future osteoarthritis. Many techniques have been used to repair these fractures, with common techniques including veterinary...
